Men  -   Climbing

Heading to the top.
Don't let the weather get in the way of a great climb. GORE-TEX® mountain climbing gear for men is durably waterproof, totally windproof, and extremely breathable - even in extreme conditions.

On the mountain, the weather can change without warning. Within minutes, a sunny day can be replaced by howling winds and subzero temperatures. To make it to the summit, it’s critical to have high-performance mountain climbing gear. Men's GORE-TEX® mountain climbing gear is made of the most rugged, durably windproof, waterproof and breathable fabrics available. The intelligent design and unique technology of the GORE-TEX® membrane blocks external moisture from getting in, while still allowing water vapor from perspiration to escape, so you stay warm and dry no matter what the mountain throws at you. The secret is in the science—the GORE-TEX® membrane is comprised of microscopic pores that are 20,000 times smaller than a droplet of water, but 700 times bigger than a water vapor molecule, so liquid stays out but perspiration can evaporate through. And because we know how rough mountain climbing can be on your gear, all men’s GORE-TEX® mountain climbing gear is subjected to durability and performance tests both in the lab and out in the field. In addition to keeping you dry and comfortable, our gear will also last the test of time. Choose from our variety of men’s mountain climbing gear and head to the top!

Fast Fact

Ouch!

The Martindale Abrasion Test vigorously rubs GORE-TEX® fabric with wool or sandpaper for up to several days non-stop to test its abrasion resistance.

Comfort Tip

The windchill effect can radically alter your perception of comfort. Rely on totally windproof outerwear to keep you warm and protected when the wind kicks up.
